With four minutes to go in the half, Cobh conceded a poor goal when their defender allowed Rocks to dispossess him and Rocks squared to enable Danny to tap it home into the empty net for 3-0 to Wexford. Cobh then rallied a bit and a 30 yarder hit the Wexford post but stayed out and, a minute later, another Cobh effort went a yard wide to leave the score at 3-0 to Wexford at half-time. First 20 minutes or so of the second period was fairly quiet as Cobh found it hard to get anything going. However, on 11 minutes, Eric Molloy hit the post with a header after a good Wexford move. As the second half neared the half-hour mark, Danny had a shot which went wide and Craig Wall shot over after a cross by Drukie found him in space inside the Cobh box. With ten minutes to go, Cobh got a goal back when Murphy drilled one inside the left hand post from just outside the box for 3-1. Graham Doyle then had to push away another Cobh effort which was on target for a corner. However, with four minutes to go, Wexford restored their three goal advantage when Speedy crossed into the Cobh box where Danny's outstretched leg somehow looped the ball into the top right-hand corner for 4-1 to Wexford. Late sub for Wexford was Peter Higgins for Jonny Bonner and match finished on 4-1 scoreline for Wexford.
